Electric Power Generation, Transmission, and Distribution

Updated with the latest developments and advances, the second edition of The Electric Power Engineering Handbook has grown so much that it is now presented as a set of five books. Now this authoritative coverage is available in easily digestible portions that are tightly focused and conveniently sized. Electric Power Generation, Transmission, and Distribution focuses on the 'Big Three' aspects of electric power. Extensive updates to nearly every chapter keep the coverage as current as possible, while new sections on environmental impact of transmission lines, real-time control of distributed generation, and distribution system characterization and protection reflect the latest thinking in the field.

Electric Power Distribution Equipment and Systems

Practitioner Short has selected chapters from Electric Power Distribution Handbook to create this concise, focused reference on the technologies and infrastructure necessary for power distribution along vast distances as well as to local customers. Topics of those chapters include the fundamentals of distribution systems, including urban networks, distribution substations, and differences between European and North American systems; overhead lines, including typical constructions, simplified line impedance calculations, and fault withstanding capacity; underground distribution, including applications, cables, cable testing and fault location; transformers, including single-phase, three-phase, special transformers and loadings; voltage regulation, including techniques, regulators and station regulation; and capacitor application, including reducing line losses and caring for failure and case ruptures.

Electric Machinery Fundamentals


I have three standard books on electric machines, and the best one by far is Stephen Chapman's Electric Machinery Fundamentals (fourth edition). Chapman has the rare ability to strike a golden balance between theory and practice, and between rigour and informality, such that the theoretical actually illuminates the practical. His discussion on power transformers is the best I have seen anywhere, and he maintains that same high quality throughout the book. Along the way, he has even managed to correct a subtle misconception that I had held for several years concerning Lenz's law. The print quality is superb and the diagrams are sharp and clear. I would like to answer a comment that another reviewer had against this book, namely, that this book uses log or semilog scales. I think we should be grateful that Mr. Chapman had the good judgment to use log or semilog scales, or else we are going to have a book that is hundreds of miles long and wide.

Dielectric in Electric Fields


Dielectrics in Electric Fields is a well-organized and comprehensive view of both the
theory behind and application of dielectric materials in power equipment, industrial
equipment, and commercial appliances. At both the introductory and advanced levels, it
provides both a solid foundation of theory, fact, nomenclature, and formula, and sound
insight into the philosophies of dielectric engineering techniques and their use. Its
unifying approach, based on both physics and engineering, makes it useful as a day-today
reference as well as an excellent tutorial: the book begins with a thorough review of
the basics of dielectric and polymer science and builds upon it a comprehensive and very
broad presentation of all aspects of modern dielectric theory and engineering, including
the lastest analysis and modeling techniques.
